How do I configure my highly available cluster to enable access to storage devices managed by fence agents in RHEL 6 or 7?
Issue
- Which fence agents should include an
<unfence>
section in their/etc/cluster/cluster.conf
on RHEL 6? - Nodes are not being "unfenced" by
fence_scsi
when they join apacemaker
cluster - Do I need to configure something special so that the cluster enables access to the shared storage devices managed by my fence devices when a node joins?
- What storage fencing options are available?
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6 or 7 with the High Availability Add On
cman
clusters with or withoutpacemaker
- A fence agent in use by one or more cluster nodes which controls access to a resource, such as storage, that must be enabled when a node joins the cluster. Agents provided by Red Hat that require such functionality are:
fence_scsi
fence_sanlock
fence_cisco_mds
fence_ifmib
fence_sanbox2
fence_brocade
